647 PS - VW T5 TH2RS CUP from tuner TH Automobile

And once again we want you a completely rebuilt VW T5 bus (model year 2009) from the tuner TH automobiles from Berlin show. After one 580 PS T5 as well as a chic version with 700 PS But this vehicle could be the most extreme so far. Because while on the outside, apart from the paintwork in "RS green / viper green", the look of a family bus is still recognizable, under the sheet metal has made sure that the T5 becomes a super sports car. The interior of this vehicle has been completely blown out and replaced by racing equipment. Much like the McLaren F1, the driver sits centrally in the cockpit in an ultra-light, custom-made carbon shell with four-point racing belts. The view then wanders over a completely cleaned dashboard (apart from the AUDIOVOX VME 8013 radio) in the center of which bright green Porsche fittings and a grippy sports steering wheel can be found again.

By the way, the view to the rear is particularly cool, here are four more carbon seat shells again. In our opinion, this T5 would be the perfect ring tool for the Nordschleife to allow some tourists a hell of a trip. And with the increase in performance on 647 PS is always enough power at the start. Info: In the video below Walter Röhrl drives the TH2RS and apparently the engine is even able to generate incredible 800 PS with a few changes. Made possible by a boxer engine of a Porsche 911 Turbo (996 series) in the rear of the T5 with 3,6-liter displacement and twin turbocharging somewhere between the rear wheels is installed. The tank was replaced by a special racing tank and enlarged to 100 liters capacity. This is now installed at the front where once the VW 4 cylinder provided propulsion. The weight distribution should be quite interesting and especially on the racetrack allow the T5 in this vehicle class fabulous lap times.

now installed in the rear - the motor of the TH2RS

If you go through the punch fully and the Drexler locking differential works in only 4,9 seconds handgeschalten (Porsche six-speed transmission) at 100 km / h and only at crazy 311 km / h maximum speed is the Wolfsburg out of breath. And as mentioned above, apart from the paint in the Porsche RS Viper green everything relatively subtle. The T5 is completely painted in body color and has a carbon front spoiler lip and a black radiator grille without a brand emblem. The inlay of the xenon headlights is painted black and green and in the wheel arches there are matt black 19-inch ATS Superlight alloy wheels on Michelin Pilot Sport (245/40 ZR19 98Y & 285/35 ZR19 103Y) tires that give a glimpse of the huge 390 × 34 mm Brembo sports brake system with perforated brake discs and 6 pistons at the front. The 996 rear axle with reinforced wheel carriers, on the other hand, decelerates with 365 × 28 mm discs and 4 pistons.

grim look and no VW emblem

Of course, there was also a specially made H&R racing suspension, the underbody is completely covered and the powerful sounding 996 Turbo sports exhaust system at the rear has a central arrangement and two tailpipes. Other small details are a single-arm wiper at the front, a tailgate without a VW emblem and rear wiper and the small side indicators in the fenders have also been removed. The T5 is kept extremely clean and especially with a black paintwork and darkened windows at the back, hardly anyone would be able to make the difference to the series. The TH2RS is currently being approved for road use in Germany (complete conversion is with decrease) and TÜV offered until 07.2020 at a price of just under € 149.000. Anyone who buys this vehicle can proudly claim to own the "fastest bus in Nardo". There the bullet was measured at a top speed of 310,8 km / h.
